The World Animal Day is marked on October 4.
As Yerevan Zoo Public Relations Manager Mane Madoyan told the Armenpress, more than 2,700 animals, more than 200 species, are currently kept at Zoo.
Under Madoyan, as compared with the regional countries, Yerevan Zoo has a sufficient amount of animal species: obtaining new animals is not a priority. Priority is to ensure appropriate conditions for already obtained animals.
The decision to mark the World Animal Day was adopted in 1931 in Florence at the International Congress of the supporters of the process to protect nature.
